First record I ever bought was 'I hear you Knocking' back in the early 70's. Feels like it was only last week.

 

 

 

The rhythm sound you hear is someone rubbing sandpaper on an SM58 microphone......well that's what Barry Upton told me !

Same for me with Black Sabbath. Had Paranoid ringing in my ears for 3 days. 

"Recorded Live at Criteria Studios, Miami, Florida, USA August 02, 1970. A few uninspired days into the Layla sessions, Dowd, who was also producing for the Allmans for their album Idlewild South, invited Clapton to an Allman Brothers outdoor concert in Miami, where Clapton first heard Duane Allman play live. The Dominos were sneaked into the show with the help of Dowd and sat between the riser and fans below. At the concert, Dowd distinctly remembers: "Duane was in the middle of a solo; he opens his eyes and looks down, does a dead stare, and stops playing. Dickey Betts is chugging along, see Duane's stopped playing, and figures he'd better cover, that Duane must've broken a string or something. Then Dickey looks down, sees Eric, and turns his back. That was how they first saw each other." Formal introductions were made after the show. Eric invited the entire band to Criteria Studios for a jam. After the concert was over, they all came back to the studio and jammed until approximately 6:00 the next night, Dowd remembered. "They were trading licks. They were swapping guitars. They were talking shop and information and having a ball no holds barred, just admiration for each other's technique and facility. There was no control. We turned the tapes on and they went on for 15 to 18 hours like that. You just kept the machines rolling. I went through two or three sets of engineers. It was a wonderful experience."

Albert King was born on this day.His surname wasn't King but he thought being a brother of B.B.King would help his career, lol.

Funny you say that jvs, just yesterday I was listening to a great song by Mandolin Orange, recorded just a few years ago but in a traditional style. At first I thought I couldn't post it in this thread but really I should for its essence, like your post, is from a rich musical heritage.

 

I didn't have a happy time in Indonesia in the mid 80s but listening to this lady made me feel better for a while.
